Subject: One stupid-simple trick for NEVER hitting a fat-loss plateau...
So here's
the trick...in order to avoid fat-loss
plateaus, NEVER let yourself
become
efficient
at whatever training you're doing...
You want to AVOID training efficiency like the
plague...and here's why...
Day 1...you began your fat-loss
training and all the weight
training exercises
were new and tough. All the cardio was
challenging.
The diet was rough. And you started losing
fat
FAST.
Then you started
getting into the groove - you learned the
exercises and training techniques, you got
good at the cardio
and could really power
through it. Even the diet part was
getting
easier.
Now, you would think with things going this well (your training
and
eating actually improving as you were going) that
your
fat loss would actually be accelerated.
But then things
started to slow down.
You're training
just as hard. The training is tough but you've
found
your stride with it. The diet part is going well.
Is your metabolism
slowing down? You take a few days
off and eat
more to try and reset your metabolism and
then
jump back in but things still aren't moving.
What now?
Time to go back
to the drawing board and quite literally
go back
to when you were BAD at things!
Because when you
were BAD at things, everything
you did seemed
to take more energy. It was
inefficient. And in
that inefficiency, you burned a
LOT more calories...getting
the idea now?
Let's take running
as an example as this is a very visual
thing.
Look at two people...one is a first-time jogger,
trying to get into shape. The other is an experienced
runner.
Let's also assume
these two people weigh exactly the
same so they
SHOULD be burning the same number of
calories
when they cover the same distance, right?
But when you see
the poor guy slogging his way down
the side of
the road, barely lifting his feet off the ground
and you see the OTHER guy practically floating
past
him, who do you think is burning more calories
and
challenging their body to a greater degree?
The guy who is completely
inefficient is driving his
metabolism to a whole
other level than the experienced
runner, even
though the runner is probably going 3 or
4 times
faster!
So here's the take-home lesson. When fat
loss
starts to slow down, you don't
necessarily need
to work harder at the
same things you're already
doing...you
may just need to do things you STINK at!
Let's say you're
used to doing barbell bench press for
chest and
rarely ever do dips. Even if you push yourself
on the bench press, what do you think will get
you
cranked up more...bench press or dips? You'll
be so
unused to doing dips that your body will
have to work a
lot harder just to perform the
exercise.
Then when you get
too good at dips, switch to dumbbell
bench press.
Keep doing stuff you're NOT good at!
You want to really
lose fat? Put together a program
based on completely on exercises
you STINK at or
rarely do (maybe
because you stink
at them ;).
You may have to
use a lot less weight but I can promise,
you'll
kick your metabolism into gear far more than
when
you cruise through even tough sets of exercises
you ARE good at.
Try a workout based
on weighted dips, front squats,
wide-grip barbell
rows, hang clean and press, and
stiff-legged deadlifts.
Or if you're good
at those, go with exercises you're
NOT good at.
Force yourself to do them until you GET
good at
them, then move on to something else.
When it comes to
cardio training, do you do interval
training on
the treadmill? Get out to an athletic field
and
do sprints there instead. Kick butt on the stair
machine? Try some real stairs and see what happens!
Or, even better, do something TOTALLY different
like
swimming...or carrying heavy objects around your
neighborhood (that's what I love to do...I'm constantly
thinking of new things to lug around for miles at a time).
I think you're getting
the idea...when the body gets
good at something,
it gets lazy and efficient. It uses
as little
energy as possible and CAN use very little
energy
because it IS so efficient.
It might be tough
on the ego, but by working with
exercises you're
not good at, you'll actually be
speeding up your
fat loss significantly.
And, as a bonus,
you might just get good at exercises
you used
to stink at!
Now, if
you're interested in a fat-loss program geared
towards keeping you inefficient,
I'd definitely recommend
checking out
my Metabolic Surge program.
The training
and eating are constantly changing, never
allowing your body to get accustomed to
(or efficient
at!) really any of it. This
not only gets you better
results, it keeps
things challenging and interesting.
